Place Your Hand in Mine, Wife.

It's five -and-twenty years to-day
Since we were man and wife
And that's a tidy slice, say,
From anybody'S life.
And if we want, in looking back,
To feel how time has flown,
There's Jack, you see, our baby Jack,
With whiskeFs of his own.
Place your hand in mine, wife
We've loved each other true;
And still, in shade or shine, wife,
There's love TO help us through.
It's not been all smooth sailing, wife
Not always laughing May.
Sometimes its been weary strife
To keep the wolf away.
We've had our little tiffs, my dear;
We've often grieved and sighed!
One lad has cost us many a tear,
Our little baby died.
Place your hand in mine, wife
We've loved each other true;
And still in shade or shine, wife,
There's love to help us through.
But, wife, your love along the road
Has cheered the toughest spell
You've borne your half of every load,
And often mine as well.
I've rued full many foolish thing
Ere well the step was ia en-;
But, oh, I'd haste to buy the ring
And we'd YOU DER again.
Place your hand in mine, wife,
We've loved each other true;
And still, in shade or shine, wife,
There's love to help US through.
Twas you who made me own the hand
That's working all along,
In ways we cannot understand
Still bringing right from wrong.
You've kept me brave and kept me true
You've made me trust and pray;
My gentle evening star were you,
That blessed the close of day.
Place your hand in mine, wife
We've loved each other true;
And still, in shade or shine, wife,
There's love to help us through.

An Empress Bonnets.
From the Lndy's World.


The Empress Josephine once bought thirty
eight bonnets in one month. We do not know
at what number her mighty husband drew the
line. but it is a fact that, having learned that
she had ndulged herself with the acquisition
of this large number, he-when be one day went
into the salon leading to her apartments and
found in it Mile. Despair, the milliner
with large pile of suspicious looking band.
boxes-was SO indignant at the idea of his
wife making fresh purchases that he flew
into such passion that everyone ran away
leaving him to decide whether he would
vent his rage on poor Josephine, who was
prisoner with her feet in foot bath, or on the
miner herself. He did little of both. He
was so angry with Josephine that she was
speechless with terror, and he sent for Savary,
his minister of police. and ordered him TO arrest
Mile Despaux. She was sent to Ia Force inn
mediatel, and, though her fear of Napoleon and
horror of "A night in prison made her i'll, her
fortune was probably made by this startling
outbreak OF imperial temper Next day nearly
every one in Paris hocked TO see her, hear her
story and condole with her. She never could
have lacked custom after this.

The Volunteer and Thistle.

Interest in the international contest for
the Americas cup will continue to grow
until the contest is ended. The Thistle,
which will represent the English yachtsnen
is probably on her way to this country. She
is splendid yacht, and in the recent races
in England easily proved herself superior to
any of the other English yachts. She was
especially designed and built to capture the
Americas cup, and her owners feel conf
dent of victory
1t is not certain which of the American
yachts will defend the cup. That will have
to be determined by trial contests, which,
doubtless, will take place some time next
month The new yacht Volunteer is the
favorite at present. She was built by Gen.
Paine fort the purpose of meeting the Thistle,
and the little sailing she has done has given
satisfaction. She will, however, be tested
in trial races with the Mayflower, Atlantic,
Puritan and Priscilla, and while it is not
probable it is possible that one of them may
prove to be superior to her Her designer,
Mr.. Burgess, thinks that she can beat the
Mayflower in race of fifty miles fully
twelve minutes There is naturally very
general desire for an early race between her
and the Mayflower.
Vessels like the Volunteer and Thistle
are not likely to become popular for pleas
ure yachts. They are mere racing machines
The cost of handling them is very great on
account of the amount of canvass which
they carry. The Priscilla is of the same
class of yachts as the Volunteer and Thistle
and it is said that it requires thirty-ive
men to haul in her main sheet when a stiff
breeze is blowing The Thistle has crow
| of forty, and this number is not too great
! When accommodations are provided for so
large crew it is evident that not much
| room is left for the owner and his guests
| The Thistle and the Volunteer, however
are not built for pleasure boats but TO graf
| ify national pride. The pride of either this
country or England, however, must suffer
| quite a severe blow in September, and there
is very hopeful feeling on this side of the
water that it will not be the pride of this
| country

Local Bills.

The members continue to introduce bills
into the Legislature. Do they expect to
have them acted upOnI There are at pres
ent enough bills pending to keep the Legis-
lature busy until Christmas. OF course,
every member must introduce all the bills
his constituents send to him, and he must do
all he can to have them passed. Indeed,
these little local bills occupy more time than
the general ones which affect the interest of
the whole State If the local bills are not
attended to the members are certain to be
pretty harshly criticised by their constitu-
ents, and to have their chances of re-elec
ton damaged, if not destroyed. The Morn
ING NEWS has urged, time and again, the
necessity for passing some general laws au-
thorizing City Councils and County Com
missioners to do a great many of the things
which the Legislature is now required to do
Is there not some member of the Legisa-
ture able enough, and who has time enough,
to frame few such laws' If there is and
he will undertake the work he will make
himself a name that will have place in the
history of the State.
